When the radio CPU is about to transmit a packet from a TX queue, it calls PROC_ALLOCATE_TX to get a pointer to the data to transmit. When the packet transmits, the radio CPU calls PROC_FINISH_DATA_ENTRY or PROC_FREE_DATA_ENTRY. If PROC_FINISH_DATA_ENTRY is called, the system CPU is informed that the entry is finished and may be reused. This calling process must be used if retransmission of the packet is not an option. If PROC_FREE_DATA_ENTRY is called, the transmitted entry remains first in the queue so that it may be transmitted, which is used when an acknowledgment is expected.
If an acknowledgment is received on a packet that was transmitted, followed by the radio CPU calling PROC_FREE_DATA_ENTRY, the radio CPU calls PROC_ALLOCATE_TX followed by PROC_FINISH_DATA_ENTRY (this is equivalent to CMD_REMOVE_DATA_ENTRY, see Section 26.3.3.2). This calling process causes the next entry in the queue to be transmitted. If an acknowledgment is not received, the last transmitted packet is retransmitted.
